Yeah, it's an hour drive to the lake. I'm kinda spoiled in that I can go 15 minutes to my local launch spot on the river. We've got a annual parking pass for our launch at the river, so it makes it pretty convenient.
We decided to mix it up and do the lake for a change. It was fun. Other than the morning glass for the first couple wakeboard pulls, the conditions on the lake weren't really a ton better than what we'd usually have on the river. However, changing it up was great.
Here's me showing off my slalom wake first thing in the morning... (we weren't even going that fast, probably just around 25)
